Digital R&D fund for arts pilot projectDero: The Sage Gateshead with Fusion Analytics and Cambridge University

The Sage is exploring how digital technology can help orchestras and venues find new audiences and income streams. The project broadcasts live concerts through a range of distribution channels and into a network of venues across Britain. The aim is to reach new audiences that are younger and who live in more rural areas that previously would not have had access to live performances.

The £7 million Digital R&D Fund for the Arts is a partnership between Arts Council England, the Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and Nesta.
